Roger Vivier transformed its Greenbelt 3 location into a geometric spectacle, reflecting the vision behind the Maison’s newest campaign, Vivier Op-Tical. Based on Op art, an art movement popularised in the Sixties, the collection is all about playing with shapes and contrasting colours—an expansion of the founder's bold archival designs from the brand’s early days. This can be seen in shoes decked out in from colour-blocked patent leather, black-and-white motifs, and graphic tweed.
